texte = hi... i asked the same question a month ago on this list. but finally wrote a little system myself. i don't use the orderfile thing. it doesn't work with cookies and the files i write for session handling are a lot smaller. of course they are designed to handle only small amount of variables which i need to follow the user around and time the sessions out after a while... it's not a lot of code but it works fine for me...
